Excerpt from Christian Memoirs, or the Nature of Conviction of Sin and Regeneration: Illustrated in Narratives of the Conversion of Eminent Christians Such are the inquiries which spontaneously spring up in almost every mind, and how can they be answered by merely saying, that during so many weeks, months, or years, he was in great distress of mind, and was at last brought up out of the horrible pit and miry clay, and had a new song put into his mouth? However thorough and genuine the work of God upon the heart Of any sinner may seem to be at first, how can we know that he is really born again? He may be self deceived, or he may for a time assume 'the form Of godliness' from sinister motives. The evidence of his conversion is to be sought for m a religious life.'

Dictionary of Early American Philosophers
Author: John R. Shook
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1843711826
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 1249
Book Description
The Dictionary of Early American Philosophers, which contains over 400 entries by nearly 300 authors, provides an account of philosophical thought in the United States and Canada between 1600 and 1860. The label of "philosopher" has been broadly applied in this Dictionary to intellectuals who have made philosophical contributions regardless of academic career or professional title. Most figures were not academic philosophers, as few such positions existed then, but they did work on philosophical issues and explored philosophical questions involved in such fields as pedagogy, rhetoric, the arts, history, politics, economics, sociology, psychology, medicine, anthropology, religion, metaphysics, and the natural sciences. Each entry begins with biographical and career information, and continues with a discussion of the subject's writings, teaching, and thought. A cross-referencing system refers the reader to other entries. The concluding bibliography lists significant publications by the subject, posthumous editions and collected works, and further reading about the subject.

Religious Melancholy and Protestant Experience in America
Author: Julius H. Rubin
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN: 0195083016
Category : Anorexia nervosa
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
This thought-provoking study examines an apparent paradox in the history of American Protestant evangelical religion. Fervent believers who devoted themselves completely to the challenges of making a Christian life, who longed to know God's rapturous love, all too often languished in despair, feeling forsaken by God. Indeed, some individuals became obsessed by guilt, terror of damnation, and the idea that they had committed an unpardonable sin. Ironically, those most devoted to fostering the soul's maturation seemingly neglected the well-being of the psyche. Drawing upon many sources, including unpublished diaries, spiritual narratives, and case studies of patients treated in nineteenth-century asylums, Julius Rubin thoroughly explores religious melancholy - as a distinctive stance toward life, a grieving over the loss of God's love, and an obsession and psycho pathology associated with the spiritual itinerary of conversion. The varieties of this spiritual sickness include sinners who would fast unto death ("evangelical anorexia nervosa"), religious suicides, and those obsessed with unpardonable sin. From colonial Puritans like Michael Wigglesworth to contemporary evangelicals like Billy Graham, Rubin shows that religious melancholy has shaped the experience of self and identity for those who sought rebirth as children of God. Religious Melancholy and Protestant Experience in America offers a fresh and revealing look at a widely recognized phenomenon. It will be of interest to scholars and students of religious studies, American history, psychology, and sociology of religion.
